Primary Outcome  
Outcome  TimePoints

Secondary Outcome  
Outcome  TimePoints 
time to intubate
number of attempts required to intubate
any need for alternative airway devices or methods of intubation
vitals( heart rate, blood pressure, oxygen saturation) before & at the time of intubation
incidence of airway injuries(bleeding, injury to lips, gums, teeth, pharnx & larynx) 
time to intubate(from insertion of video-laryngoscope to the appearance of end-tidal carbon di-oxide waveform)- within 30 seconds of placing video-laryngoscope.
need for alternative airway devices or methods of intubation- Yes or No
Heart rate in beats per minute, blood pressure in mmHg & oxygen saturation in percentage (5 minutes before intubation & at the time of intubation). Incidence of airway injury-present/absent (during video-laryngoscope insertion & during intubation)

Brief Summary
Modification(s)  
This study is a randomized , open label, parallel arm ,  prospective  interventional  single  centre  trial comparing video-laryngoscopy  and video-assisted fiberoptic intubation in patients with simulated cervical  spine abnormality. Primary outcome is measured by first attempt intubation success. Secondary outcome is measured by time taken to intubate, number of attempts required, any need for alternative airway devices or methods of intubation, vitals( heart rate, blood pressure and oxygen saturation level in blood)
